Their eyes were wide with curiosity as I unrolled my calligraphy work, displaying the Chinese characters “sheng sheng bu xi” as my encouragement for the kids to grow healthily. I read the words aloud and explained their meaning. I was touched as the children excitedly tried to imitate (模仿) me, showing their interest in my calligraphy and the Chinese language. The small yard was filled with their enthusiasm. This happened during a field trip I took from July 1 to 9 as part of the Tsinghua University Global Competency Overseas Practicum Course. The course sent four teams to various countries as part of a summer program in 2024, and I was selected as a member of the team visiting Zimbabwe. This small-scale, in-depth course wants to help students to have a global vision, facilitating future people-to-people connections. During my time in Zimbabwe, I was pleasantly surprised to discover that my calligraphy talents played a significant role in cultural exchanges. One of the highlights was a forum (论坛) where we engaged in a series of activities with local artists. While my fellow team members sang Welcome to Beijing, I created four calligraphy pieces and presented these pieces on stage at the end of the song, receiving an enthusiastic response. In addition to my performance at the forum, I devoted time each evening to creating calligraphy tailored for the people we were to visit the next day. My efforts were well-received, as the Zimbabweans’ initial surprise at my calligraphy turned into delight, recognition, and gratitude after I explained the meanings to them. This gave me a sense of achievement and firsthand experience in cultural exchanges. This experience in Zimbabwe has made me realize the power of art to bridge differences. These valuable connections will stay with me, inspiring me to continue sharing Chinese culture while remaining open to others. 4. How did the author feel when the children excitedly tried to imitate him? A. Touched. B. Curious. C. Bored. D. Grateful. 5. Which paragraph shows the aim of the field trip? A. Paragraph 1. B. Paragraph 2. C. Paragraph 3. D. Paragraph 4. 6. What can we know from the passage? A. The children in Zimbabwe are not interested in Chinese characters. B. The field trip lasted for almost half a month. C. The author created calligraphy tailored every night during the trip. D. The author has realized the power of music to bridge differences. 7. Why does the author write the passage? A. Because he wants to call on people to care for children. B. Because he wants to share an unforgettable experience. C. Because he wants to stress the importance of international help. D. Because he wants to introduce people in Zimbabwe. 【答案】4. A 5. D 6. C 7. B 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇记叙文。主要讲述了作者去津巴布韦参加的一次学校暑假活动。通过这项活动作者意识到了艺术在文化交流中的重要作用。 【4题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中“I was touched as the children excitedly tried to imitate (模仿) me, showing their interest in my calligraphy and the Chinese language.(当孩子们兴奋地模仿我，表现出对我的书法和中文的兴趣时，我被感动了。)”可知，当孩子们兴奋地试图模仿作者时，作者是感动的。故选A项。 【5题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段“This small-scale, in-depth course wants to help students to have a global vision, facilitating future people-to-people connections.(这门小规模、深入的课程希望帮助学生拥有全球视野，促进未来人与人之间的联系。)”可推知，第四段说明了实地考察的目的。故选D项。 【6题详解】 细节理解题。根据倒数第二段中“In addition to my performance at the forum, I devoted time each evening to creating calligraphy tailored for the people we were to visit the next day.(除了我在论坛上的表演，我每天晚上都花时间为我们第二天要拜访的人量身定做书法。)”可知，从文章中我们可以知道作者在旅途中每天晚上都创作量身定做的书法。故选C项。 【7题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“This experience in Zimbabwe has made me realize the power of art to bridge differences. These valuable connections will stay with me, inspiring me to continue sharing Chinese culture while remaining open to others.(在津巴布韦的经历让我意识到艺术在弥合差异方面的力量。这些宝贵的联系将留在我身边，激励我继续分享中国文化，同时保持对他人的开放。)”以及上文中讲述的作者去津巴布韦参加的一次学校暑假活动可知，本文讲述的是作者去津巴布韦参加的一次学校暑假活动，由此可知，作者的目的是想分享一次难忘的经历。故选B项。 C I am always surprised by how often gardening, a pursuit all about communing with nature, can be so driven by fear. One of the most common questions I get from concerned gardeners is how to remove the climbing plants like ivy (常春藤) from walls. The thinking behind this is that climbers shatter brickwork and can cause profound structural damage to buildings. But when you actually look at the science, very few of these fears are based on any evidence. In a 2024 study, a range of climbing plants were found to have a protective effect on model brick buildings constructed for the experiment. The shade cast by the plant leaves cooled the surface of the buildings in the summer by as much as 5.7℃, reducing the wide swings between day and night temperatures—a key driver of surface structural damage. Despite concerns that plants trap moisture (潮气) against brickwork, leading to damp issues, the same trial found this wasn’t the case. Ivy didn’t significantly raise humidity (湿度) levels—rather, it helped stabilize them. The living coating also lowered summer temperatures inside the buildings by up to 7.2℃. It is worth bearing in mind that these results were from brand new, model buildings. What about real-world, well-used buildings, which may have already experienced centuries of environmental damage? Well, another study from 2020 found that in five historic buildings across England, bare walls experienced average maximum temperatures 36 percent higher and minimum temperatures 15 percent lower compared with those coated in protective leaves. Imagine if there was a new material that could cool cities and cut energy bills, all looking beautiful and costing part of the price of alternatives. The truth is that we have had this miracle material all along, but rather than appreciating it, we have spent huge amounts of time worrying about how to dispose of it. 8. Why do many gardeners want to remove climbing plants? A. They fear the disorderly growth of climbing plants. B. They ignore the benefit of climbing plants to the atmosphere. C. They think climbing plants may cause damage to the buildings. D. They suppose climbing plants don’t match the layout of their gardens. 9. What can be known from the passage? A. Ivies help raise humidity levels a lot. B. Wide swings in temperature damage structures. C. Climbing plants are of little benefit to real-world buildings. D. Climbing plants are widely popular as they are cheap. 10. Why are historic buildings mentioned in Paragraph 4? A. To share a story. B. To clarify a definition. C To show their importance. D. To support an idea. 11. What does the underlined phrase “dispose of” mean in the last paragraph? A. Get rid of. B. Carry on. C. Get a load of. D. Help out. 【答案】8. C 9. B 10. D 11. A 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。主要介绍了攀缘植物(如常春藤)对建筑物的保护作用，而非普遍认为的损害作用。 【8题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段中“The thinking behind this is that climbers shatter brickwork and can cause profound structural damage to buildings.(这背后的想法是，攀缘植物会破坏砖石结构，对建筑物造成严重的结构破坏。)”可知，许多园丁想要去除攀缘植物是因为他们认为攀缘植物可能会对建筑物造成破坏。故选C项。 【9题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中“The shade cast by the plant leaves cooled the surface of the buildings in the summer by as much as 5.7℃, reducing the wide swings between day and night temperatures—a key driver of surface structural damage.(夏季，植物叶片的遮荫使建筑物表面降温5.7℃，减少了昼夜温度的剧烈波动——这是造成表面结构破坏的关键因素。)”可知，昼夜温差的大幅度波动会损坏结构。故选B项。 【10题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段中“Well, another study from 2020 found that in five historic buildings across England, bare walls experienced average maximum temperatures 36 percent higher and minimum temperatures 15 percent lower compared with those coated in protective leaves.(那么，020年的另一项研究发现，在英格兰的5座历史建筑中，裸墙的平均最高温度比有树叶保护的墙高36%，最低温度比有树叶保护的墙低15%。)”可知，第四段提到了历史建筑是为了支持前文提到的攀缘植物对建筑物有保护作用的观点。通过对比有攀缘植物的墙壁和裸露的墙壁的温度差异，进一步证明了攀缘植物的保护作用。因此，提到了历史建筑是为了支持一个观点。故选D项。 【11题详解】 词义猜测题。根据最后一段中“Imagine if there was a new material that could cool cities and cut energy bills, all looking beautiful and costing part of the price of alternatives. The truth is that we have had this miracle material all along, but rather than appreciating it, we have spent huge amounts of time worrying about how to…(想象一下，如果有一种新材料可以给城市降温，减少能源费用，所有这些都看起来很漂亮，而且成本只是替代品的一部分。事实是，我们一直拥有这种神奇的材料，但我们没有珍惜它，而是花了大量的时间担心如何……)”可知，此处为花了大量的时间担心如何处理除掉它。故可猜测划线短语dispose of为“处理，除掉”的意思，和A选项Get rid of“摆脱，消除”意思相近。故选A项。 D Ludwig van Beethoven was born over 250 years ago. His music is still played daily around the world. His melodies (乐曲) are often used in movies, TV shows, and even cartoons. Beethoven wrote many famous pieces of music, but he’s probably best known for his nine symphonies (交响曲) . When Beethoven died in 1827, he had some ideas for the 10th Symphony. But all that he left behind were some notes about the piece and a few “sketches”—short bits of written music. In 2019, a special team of musicians, computer scientists, and historians was formed. Their goal was to try to complete Beethoven’s 10th Symphony to celebrate his 250th birthday. The team didn’t just want to complete the symphony; they wanted to come as close as possible to producing the symphony that Beethoven meant to write. That’s where deep learning came in. To train artificial intelligence (AI) to help with the symphony, the team turned every piece of music that Beethoven ever wrote into a form the computer could understand. By feeding the program all of Beethoven’s music, AI could look for patterns in the way Beethoven wrote. This included, for example, how he reused simple melodies all through a piece to create a theme, or how he moved between different parts of the symphony. Other members of the team studied Beethoven’s notes and sketches, and worked to figure out what Beethoven was planning to do. Where in the symphony did he plan to use each little bit of music that he left? Finally, AI had the challenge of trying to connect the little musical bits into a symphony. It took over two years, but the team was able to complete Beethoven’s 10th Symphony. Not simply a melody, but 40 minutes of music for a full orchestra (管弦乐队) . So Beethoven now has the 10th Symphony. And though Beethoven didn’t write it all, the team feels sure that the music is very much like what he might have written, if he’d had the chance. 12. The function of the first paragraph is to ________. A. provide background information B. introduce Beethoven’s music career C. highlight musicians’ achievements D. bring back Beethoven’s nine symphonies 13. How can AI help to finish the 10th Symphony? A. By studying other musicians’ symphonies. B. By collecting all of Beethoven’s music. C. By finding the musical patterns of Beethoven. D. By identifying Beethoven’s notes and sketches. 14. What do we know about Beethoven’s 10th Symphony? A. It requires at least 40 players to play. B. It is suitable to be played by an orchestra. C It has to be tested by Beethoven experts. D. It only took the team two weeks to complete it. 15. What is the passage mainly about? A. Revival of all Beethoven’s symphonies by AI. B. Rewriting of Beethoven’s 10 symphonies. C. AI could perform Beethoven’s 10th Symphony better than humans. D. AI helped complete Beethoven’s 10th Symphony. 【答案】12. A 13. C 14. B 15. D 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。主要介绍了人们运用AI完成贝多芬的第十交响曲，以庆祝他250岁生日。 【12题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段“Ludwig van Beethoven was born over 250 years ago. His music is still played daily around the world. His melodies (乐曲) are often used in movies, TV shows, and even cartoons. Beethoven wrote many famous pieces of music, but he’s probably best known for his nine symphonies (交响曲) . When Beethoven died in 1827, he had some ideas for the 10th Symphony. But all that he left behind were some notes about the piece and a few “sketches”—short bits of written music.(路德维希·凡·贝多芬出生于250多年前。他的音乐每天仍在世界各地播放。他的旋律经常出现在电影、电视节目，甚至动画片中。贝多芬写了许多著名的音乐作品，但他最出名的可能是他的九部交响曲。当贝多芬于1827年去世时，他对第十交响曲有一些想法。但他留下的只是一些关于这首曲子的笔记和一些“草图”——写下来的一小段音乐。)”以及下文可知，第一段的作用是提供了关于贝多芬的背景信息。故选A项。 【13题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中“To train artificial intelligence (AI) to help with the symphony, the team turned every piece of music that Beethoven ever wrote into a form the computer could understand. By feeding the program all of Beethoven’s music, AI could look for patterns in the way Beethoven wrote.(为了训练人工智能（AI）来帮助创作交响乐，该团队将贝多芬写过的每一段音乐都转换成计算机可以理解的形式。通过给程序输入贝多芬的所有音乐，人工智能可以在贝多芬的写作方式中寻找模式。)”可知，人工智能可以通过寻找贝多芬的音乐模式来帮助完成第十交响曲。故选C项。 【14题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段中“Finally, AI had the challenge of trying to connect the little musical bits into a symphony. It took over two years, but the team was able to complete Beethoven’s 10th Symphony. Not simply a melody, but 40 minutes of music for a full orchestra (管弦乐队) .(最后，人工智能面临的挑战是尝试将小音乐片段连接成交响乐。这个团队花了两年多的时间，完成了贝多芬的第十交响曲。不仅仅是一段旋律，而是整个管弦乐队40分钟的音乐。)”可知，贝多芬的《第十交响曲》适合由管弦乐队演奏。故选B项。 【15题详解】 主旨大意题。通读全文，尤其是第二段“In 2019, a special team of musicians, computer scientists, and historians was formed. Their goal was to try to complete Beethoven’s 10th Symphony to celebrate his 250th birthday. The team didn’t just want to complete the symphony; they wanted to come as close as possible to producing the symphony that Beethoven meant to write. That’s where deep learning came in.( 2019年，一个由音乐家、计算机科学家和历史学家组成的特别团队成立了。他们的目标是努力完成贝多芬的第十交响曲，以庆祝他的250岁生日。这个团队不只是想完成交响乐；他们想尽可能接近贝多芬想要创作的交响曲。这就是深度学习的用武之地。)”可知，这篇文章主要讲的是人工智能帮助完成了贝多芬的第十交响曲。故选D项。 第二节（共5小题，每小题2.5分，满分12.5分） 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，选项中有两项为多余选项。 The Power of Reading in High School In high school, reading is not just about passing exams or fulfilling assignments.

My mom was no exception. She brought us to Union Station to help us buy Christmas presents for each other-and for her. Because of Mom, my siblings(兄弟姐妹)and I would get to experience the joy of giving. I wanted to find her something special. The pleasant smell of chocolate reached my nose and I wanted to stay. Normally, when we came here, the candy makers were what I wanted to see most, but today I had a mission. So, we walked on. We explored many stores selling jewelry, purses, toys, clothing and treats, but nothing caught my eye. I just wanted something unique for Mom. I didn’t know what, but I knew I would recognize it when I saw it. Meanwhile, I wondered even though she promised to not look while we went shopping, how would whatever I picked be a surprise? All of a sudden, there it was, the perfect gift for her! On one of the stands sat a figurine (小塑像)of a lion and lamb lying down together. It would go well with a drawing of a similar scene Mom had hung on the wall. I had heard her talk about how long she had owned the picture and who had drawn it for her. I knew it was very special. I turned the figurine over to check the price and couldn’t believe my eyes. I could afford it! Mom didn’t know it, but I had put some extra money in my pocket from babysitting the neighbor kids, so I had more money than what she had given me. But she was standing nearby. No way could I make the purchase without her knowing. A moment later, she noticed the very same figurine. I watched her eyes light up. She picked it up and turned it over. 注意： （1）续写词数应为150个左右； （2）请按如下格式在答题纸的相应位置作答。 Then she put it down disappointed ly after seeing the price. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ I placed it under the tree and settled in to wait for Christmas morning. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】Then she put it down disappointedly after seeing the price. Letting out a sigh, she walked away, her eyes still lingering on it. I could tell how much she loved it but I knew she wouldn’t buy. Determined to give her a surprise, I waited until she was out of sight and quickly made the purchase My heart beat fast as I thought about what a surprise this would be on Christmas morning. With the figurine in my bag, I went home with my family I placed it under the tree and settled in to wait for Christmas morning. The day finally came. My siblings and I tore into the treats and treasures our parents had lovingly put inside stockings and brightly wrapped packages. Then we began presenting gifts to parents. When my mom unwrapped my gift, she recognized the figurine instantly, and her face lit up with surprise and joy. She turned to me and hugged me tightly with tears in her eyes. Seeing her happy made me realize the joy of giving. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了作者为母亲挑选圣诞礼物的过程，展现了作者对母亲的爱与感激之情，以及赠予带来的快乐。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“然而，在看到价格后，她失望地把它放下了。”以及第二段首句内容“我把它放在树下，然后安定下来等待圣诞节早晨的到来。”可知，第一段可描写作者悄悄买下了这个小雕像。 ②由第二段首句内容“我把它放在树下，然后安定下来等待圣诞节早晨的到来。”可知，第二段可描写作者的妈妈看到这个礼物后非常惊讶和高兴。 2.续写线索：看到价格后，作者的妈妈又放下了这个小雕像离开了——作者趁此机会，赶紧买下了小雕像——作者将小雕像放在了圣诞树下——圣诞节那天，作者的妈妈打开作者的礼物后，立刻认出了小雕像——妈妈非常惊讶，同时也很感动，紧紧抱住了作者——看到妈妈如此开心，作者也感到很开心 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①购买：purchase/make a purchase ②开始：begin/start ③拥抱：hug/embrace 情绪类 ①惊讶：surprise/astonishment/amazement ②高兴：joy/happiness 【点睛】【高分句型1】My heart beat fast as I thought about what a surprise this would be on Christmas morning.（运用了as引导的状语从句和what引导的宾语从句） 【高分句型2】When my mom unwrapped my gift, she recognized the figurine instantly, and her face lit up with surprise and joy.（运用了when引导的状语从句） 听力 1—5 ACACA 6—10 BCAAB 11—15 ABCCA 16—20 BCACB 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$ 2025届高三第三次校际联考 英语试题 注意事项： 1.本试题共10页，满分150分，时间120分钟。 2.答卷前，务必将答题卡上密封线内的各项目填写清楚。 3.回答选择题时，选出每小题答案后，用2B铅笔把答题卡上对应题目的答案标号涂黑。如需改动，用橡皮擦干净后，再选涂其它答案标号。回答非选择题时，将答案写在答题卡上。写在本试卷上无效。 4.考试结束后，监考员将答题卡按顺序收回，装袋整理；试题不回收。 第一部分：听力（共两节，满分30分） 做题时，先将答案标在试卷上。听力部分结束前，你将有两分钟的时间将试卷上的答案转涂到答题卡上。 第一节（共5小题，每小题1.5分，满分7.5分） 听下面5段对话。每段对话后有一个小题，从题中所给的A、B、C三个选项中选出最佳选项。听完每段对话后，你都有10秒钟的时间来回答有关小题和阅读下一小题。每段对话仅读一遍。 例：How much is the shirt?

Their eyes were wide with curiosity as I unrolled my calligraphy work, displaying the Chinese characters “sheng sheng bu xi” as my encouragement for the kids to grow healthily. I read the words aloud and explained their meaning. I was touched as the children excitedly tried to imitate (模仿) me, showing their interest in my calligraphy and the Chinese language. The small yard was filled with their enthusiasm. This happened during a field trip I took from July 1 to 9 as part of the Tsinghua University Global Competency Overseas Practicum Course. The course sent four teams to various countries as part of a summer program in 2024, and I was selected as a member of the team visiting Zimbabwe. This small-scale in-depth course wants to help students to have a global vision, facilitating future people-to-people connections. During my time in Zimbabwe, I was pleasantly surprised to discover that my calligraphy talents played a significant role in cultural exchanges. One of the highlights was a forum (论坛) where we engaged in a series of activities with local artists. While my fellow team members sang Welcome to Beijing, I created four calligraphy pieces and presented these pieces on stage at the end of the song, receiving an enthusiastic response. In addition to my performance at the forum, I devoted time each evening to creating calligraphy tailored for the people we were to visit the next day. My efforts were well-received, as the Zimbabweans’ initial surprise at my calligraphy turned into delight, recognition, and gratitude after I explained the meanings to them. This gave me a sense of achievement and firsthand experience in cultural exchanges. This experience in Zimbabwe has made me realize the power of art to bridge differences. These valuable connections will stay with me, inspiring me to continue sharing Chinese culture while remaining open to others. 4. How did the author feel when the children excitedly tried to imitate him? A. Touched. B. Curious. C. Bored. D. Grateful. 5. Which paragraph shows the aim of the field trip? A. Paragraph 1. B. Paragraph 2. C. Paragraph 3. D. Paragraph 4. 6. What can we know from the passage? A. The children in Zimbabwe are not interested in Chinese characters. B. The field trip lasted for almost half a month. C. The author created calligraphy tailored every night during the trip. D. The author has realized the power of music to bridge differences. 7. Why does the author write the passage? A. Because he wants to call on people to care for children. B. Because he wants to share an unforgettable experience. C. Because he wants to stress the importance of international help. D. Because he wants to introduce people in Zimbabwe. C I am always surprised by how often gardening, a pursuit all about communing with nature, can be so driven by fear. One of the most common questions I get from concerned gardeners is how to remove the climbing plants like ivy (常春藤) from walls. The thinking behind this is that climbers shatter brickwork and can cause profound structural damage to buildings. But when you actually look at the science, very few of these fears are based on any evidence. In a 2024 study, a range of climbing plants were found to have a protective effect on model brick buildings constructed for the experiment. The shade cast by the plant leaves cooled the surface of the buildings in the summer by as much as 5.7℃, reducing the wide swings between day and night temperatures—a key driver of surface structural damage. Despite concerns that plants trap moisture (潮气) against brickwork, leading to damp issues, the same trial found this wasn’t the case. Ivy didn’t significantly raise humidity (湿度) levels—rather, it helped stabilize them. The living coating also lowered summer temperatures inside the buildings by up to 7.2℃. It is worth bearing in mind that these results were from brand new model buildings. What about real-world, well-used buildings, which may have already experienced centuries of environmental damage? Well, another study from 2020 found that in five historic buildings across England, bare walls experienced average maximum temperatures 36 percent higher and minimum temperatures 15 percent lower compared with those coated in protective leaves. Imagine if there was a new material that could cool cities and cut energy bills, all looking beautiful and costing part of the price of alternatives. The truth is that we have had this miracle material all along, but rather than appreciating it, we have spent huge amounts of time worrying about how to dispose of it. 8. Why do many gardeners want to remove climbing plants? A. They fear the disorderly growth of climbing plants. B. They ignore the benefit of climbing plants to the atmosphere. C. They think climbing plants may cause damage to the buildings. D. They suppose climbing plants don’t match the layout of their gardens. 9. What can be known from the passage? A. Ivies help raise humidity levels a lot. B. Wide swings in temperature damage structures. C. Climbing plants are of little benefit to real-world buildings. D. Climbing plants are widely popular as they are cheap. 10. Why are historic buildings mentioned in Paragraph 4? A. To share a story. B. To clarify a definition. C. To show their importance. D. To support an idea. 11. What does the underlined phrase “dispose of” mean in the last paragraph? A. Get rid of. B. Carry on. C. Get a load of. D. Help out. D Ludwig van Beethoven was born over 250 years ago. His music is still played daily around the world. His melodies (乐曲) are often used in movies, TV shows, and even cartoons. Beethoven wrote many famous pieces of music, but he’s probably best known for his nine symphonies (交响曲) . When Beethoven died in 1827, he had some ideas for the 10th Symphony. But all that he left behind were some notes about the piece and a few “sketches”—short bits of written music. In 2019, a special team of musicians, computer scientists, and historians was formed. Their goal was to try to complete Beethoven’s 10th Symphony to celebrate his 250th birthday. The team didn’t just want to complete the symphony; they wanted to come as close as possible to producing the symphony that Beethoven meant to write. That’s where deep learning came in. To train artificial intelligence (AI) to help with the symphony, the team turned every piece of music that Beethoven ever wrote into a form the computer could understand. By feeding the program all of Beethoven’s music, AI could look for patterns in the way Beethoven wrote. This included, for example, how he reused simple melodies all through a piece to create a theme, or how he moved between different parts of the symphony. Other members of the team studied Beethoven’s notes and sketches, and worked to figure out what Beethoven was planning to do. Where in the symphony did he plan to use each little bit of music that he left? Finally, AI had the challenge of trying to connect the little musical bits into a symphony. It took over two years, but the team was able to complete Beethoven’s 10th Symphony. Not simply a melody, but 40 minutes of music for a full orchestra (管弦乐队) . So Beethoven now has the 10th Symphony. And though Beethoven didn’t write it all, the team feels sure that the music is very much like what he might have written, if he’d had the chance. 12. The function of the first paragraph is to ________. A. provide background information B. introduce Beethoven’s music career C. highlight musicians’ achievements D. bring back Beethoven’s nine symphonies 13. How can AI help to finish the 10th Symphony? A. By studying other musicians’ symphonies. B. By collecting all of Beethoven’s music. C. By finding the musical patterns of Beethoven. D. By identifying Beethoven’s notes and sketches. 14. What do we know about Beethoven’s 10th Symphony? A. It requires at least 40 players to play. B. It is suitable to be played by an orchestra. C. It has to be tested by Beethoven experts. D. It only took the team two weeks to complete it. 15 What is the passage mainly about? A. Revival of all Beethoven’s symphonies by AI. B. Rewriting of Beethoven’s 10 symphonies. C. AI could perform Beethoven’s 10th Symphony better than humans. D. AI helped complete Beethoven’s 10th Symphony. 第二节（共5小题，每小题2.5分，满分12.5分） 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，选项中有两项为多余选项。 The Power of Reading in High School In high school, reading is not just about passing exams or fulfilling assignments.

My mom was no exception. She brought us to Union Station to help us buy Christmas presents for each other-and for her. Because of Mom, my siblings(兄弟姐妹)and I would get to experience the joy of giving. I wanted to find her something special. The pleasant smell of chocolate reached my nose and I wanted to stay. Normally, when we came here, the candy makers were what I wanted to see most, but today I had a mission. So, we walked on. We explored many stores selling jewelry, purses, toys, clothing and treats, but nothing caught my eye. I just wanted something unique for Mom. I didn’t know what, but I knew I would recognize it when I saw it. Meanwhile, I wondered even though she promised to not look while we went shopping, how would whatever I picked be a surprise? All of a sudden, there it was, the perfect gift for her! On one of the stands sat a figurine (小塑像)of a lion and lamb lying down together. It would go well with a drawing of a similar scene Mom had hung on the wall. I had heard her talk about how long she had owned the picture and who had drawn it for her. I knew it was very special. I turned the figurine over to check the price and couldn’t believe my eyes. I could afford it! Mom didn’t know it, but I had put some extra money in my pocket from babysitting the neighbor kids, so I had more money than what she had given me. But she was standing nearby. No way could I make the purchase without her knowing. A moment later, she noticed the very same figurine. I watched her eyes light up. She picked it up and turned it over. 注意： （1）续写词数应为150个左右； （2）请按如下格式在答题纸的相应位置作答。 Then she put it down disappointed ly after seeing the price. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ I placed it under the tree and settled in to wait for Christmas morning. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 听力 1—5 ACACA 6—10 BCAAB 11—15 ABCCA 16—20 BCACB 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$
